It’s not really his company anymore. Out of curiosity - and because I can’t sleep - I looked it up. Over the years Bill Gates has sold most of his Microsoft stock. He now owns only about 1% of Microsoft!

Bill has always been a ‘good liberal’. If a good liberal is being thrown under the bus you can bet it’s to serve a higher cause. What the higher cause is, we don’t know yet.
This is when you would need Rush’s commentary.

Damage control because of epstein island. Someone wrote a book about clinton after that saying he was just having an affair with maxwell. All lies.

Bill essentially stole the operating system from the inventor of the ultra 2000 for pennies, just like all those technocreeps have done. What goes around comes around Billy!

I guess he’ll just have to survive on the 50 billion or so he’ll have left after his divorce settlement.

I remember Bill Gates looking shell-shocked after a White House visit when Clinton was still President. Can’t recall the details, but I would not be surprised if that has something to do with his present troubles.

Show marriage.

Kinda like Rock Hudson.

He kinda looks like he takes it often up the pooper.

Somebody is going after Gates.

It’s about time his fake image facade is popped.

Re: "how can they boot him out of his own company? He could just fire the board."

Gates owns less than 5% of Microsoft today.

I think his all time largest share was in the 20%-25% range.

Most of his stock went into his Foundation endowment.
